C1025 Earth Soul Flame
Seeing that Yuwen Qianmo didn't want to tell him the truth, Du Qi could only smile bitterly. He could only follow Yuwen Qianmo's instructions and lay down several restrictions in front of the stone door. Then, he closed the stone door so that no one could open it from the outside. Only then did he turn around and look forward. What entered his eyes was a passage that pierced through the huge rock and extended downwards diagonally. The end of the passage could not be seen with a single glance.
Du Qi didn't know how long this passageway was, and where it led to. There was a thick fog in the tunnel, and he didn't know if there was any danger. However, his path of retreat had been cut off. The only thing he could do now was move forward. He was just about to step into the tunnel. Hold on, Mr. Du," he said. This tunnel is two miles away. I have set up a trap. Mr. Du wants to bring me to the other end as fast as possible. As long as we enter the cave in front of us, there will be no more danger. "
Yuwen Qianmo had stayed here for a long time, so he must know this place like the back of his hand. Therefore, Du Qi did not doubt what Yuwen Qianmo said. He pulled Yuwen Qianmo up and flew forward like a wisp of smoke.
As soon as Du Qi entered the tunnel, he heard loud noises coming from behind him. The entire tunnel shook continuously, as if the entire mountain had collapsed. Du Qi couldn't help but feel shocked, but he didn't dare to look back. He could only try his best to run forward.
As he ran, Du Qi suddenly felt the scenery in front of him change. He knew that he had passed through a dangerous place. He hurriedly stopped and looked behind him, following Yuwen Qianmo's instructions. He saw that the passage was filled with loud noises, stirring up a cloud of dust. It quickly rushed in front of them, and then it filled the space in front of them. Through the misty dust and fog, they suddenly found that the passage they had just passed through had been blocked by the entire area. In addition to the sudden change in silence, Du Qi could not help but feel even more shocked. If they were any slower, they would definitely be smashed to death in the tunnel.
Yuwen Qianmo, on the other hand, seemed indifferent. He just looked back. He said with some excitement and pride, "This road of mechanisms took me hundreds of years. If someone wants to break through, it would be better to open another path. Therefore, even if someone can open the two stone doors outside, it would be extremely difficult to enter this place and compete with us for treasures to bring danger to us. Mr. Du, don't worry. Please!"
Du Qi turned around and looked forward. He saw a huge karst cave. The ground was covered with uneven stalagmites, and stalactite stones of various sizes hung high in the air. While walking, Du Qi suddenly felt extremely tiny. In this spacious and enclosed space, he didn't know where the source of light came from. The dark green and gloomy light was faintly visible in the mist. In addition, the sound of their footsteps echoed in this incomparably silent space, making people feel frightened for no reason. They only looked left and right vigilantly and did not dare to say anything else.
"The karst cave spiraled downwards. Du Qi and Yuwen Qianmo felt more and more gloomy as they walked. Unconsciously, they were already frightened. Suddenly, a cracking sound came from the ground in front of them. When the two of them heard it, they were instantly terrified.
Nuli calmed his mind. Yuwen Qianmo smiled and said, "It's the sound of water dripping!" Yuwen Qianmo looked relaxed, but in fact, he was a little nervous. Even his voice was trembling.
Yuwen Qianmo's voice was not loud. Du Qi was shocked when he heard it, but he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Look at you. Is this the first time you are here?"
Yuwen Qianmo said somewhat awkwardly, "I have been through this before. I have never paid attention to these details. I have never experienced and felt this way."
Du Qi thought deeply and said, "Now, we have been at least ten miles deep into the ground before we encountered a drop of stalactite stone. Could it be that this cave leads directly to the Yin River? Why is the temperature increasing? "
Looking at the fog that was getting thicker and thicker, Yuwen Qianmo thought for a while and said, "It is normal for the temperature to get higher and higher, but the appearance of this fog is somewhat abnormal. Could it be... Who cares? Anyway, we have to charge forward no matter what. Why bother thinking about these small details? However, there are a lot of herbs and materials that can be called Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in front of the drop of water. Mr. Du can collect them as much as he wants."
" Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Ding Dong... " As they spoke, the two of them had already entered the dense fog, and although their movements weren't obstructed, their vision was limited and it was impossible to see far. They could only see the drops of water that fell from the stalactite Stone. As they smashed into the pool of water in the small stone pit below, the clear sound kept ringing in their ears. The water droplets merged with the scattered water vapor and formed a tiny stream. It swam in the shallow gully below the ground and flowed down happily.
Under Yuwen Qianmo's guidance, Du Qi spread out his divine sense and collected the water along the way. He felt that he had gained a lot.
However, when he took a step forward as usual, Du Qi suddenly felt his eyes brighten. He had actually walked out of the thick fog, and his line of sight was no longer blocked. Seeing that the natural treasures on the walls of the cave were even denser, Du Qi couldn't help but feel delighted. He jumped up and down to collect as much as he could, and it made him forget himself. Occasionally, he looked up and saw that the thick fog was gradually moving up. A few huge stalactite stones were condensed into a turbid liquid that reflected a faint luster. Du Qi could not help but feel happy when he saw this. He cheered, "Ah! There are actually seven stalactite Stones that are about to become spirits?!"
Yuwen Qianmo was also pleasantly surprised when he saw this. He sighed with emotion and said, "It's not easy for stalactite Stones to become spirits. These seven stones are about to become spirits. It's just that they were born at the wrong time and have no hope of becoming spirits in the end. What can we do?"
Du Qi asked with puzzlement," Why do you feel a little emotional, sir? "
Yuwen Qianmo did not answer but asked, "Did Mr. Du notice that this place is different from the fog just now?"
Du Qi thought for a while and said, "Except for feeling a little hot, there seems to be no other difference."
Yuwen Qianmo said again, "Does Mr. Du know why this is?"
Du Qi pondered and said, "Could it be related to our purpose of coming here?"
Yuwen Qianmo nodded and said, "That's right! There is an Earth Heart Spirit Flame in this place. We are here to collect it."
Du Qi said in surprise, "Earth Heart Spirit Flame? Could it be a type of flame? No wonder it's getting hotter and hotter!"
Yuwen Qianmo said longingly," The Earth Heart Spirit Flame is a type of flame, but it's not an ordinary flame. It, together with the celestial divine flame and the spatial true flame, is known as the three great flames of heaven and earth. They are the condensation of all the essence of their respective territories. I wonder how long it will take for the ___ to be able to produce the first spiritual form of the flame. The formation of the wondrous flames was another long process. Once the wondrous flames were fully formed, if he refined it, he would be able to use the power to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth. Not only could it effectively strengthen one's physique, it could also stimulate one's potential at a deeper level. It would increase one's lifespan by one fold, and it would be more efficient to use it to forge artifacts. Moreover, it could also increase the grade of the finished product. It would be even more invincible when used to attack enemies. It's a rare treasure that everyone has been dreaming of, but no one has ever obtained it since ancient times. "
Du Qi asked curiously, "Since this Earth Heart Spirit Flame is one of the three great flames in the world, and it's so magical, I'm sure many people have tried to obtain it. Why hasn't anyone obtained it yet?"
